ananda Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 I was most disappointed to find that AU Blue could only be installed in the FSX folder. I have all of my add-ons on a separate drive. However, I allowed it to proceed then got: Having clicked on "OK" it appeared to finish successfully. Do I have a corrupt installation? George Q6600 running Vista64 Edit. I got the same error when installing Hotfix 8. The others seemed to work ok. Edit2. The same error when installing Holger's mesh. What is going on? Edit3. And the same when installing the airports Edit 4. My order details are: Order Number: FSS0004567 Order Date: 2008-03-20 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ananda Posted March 20, 2008 Author Share Posted March 20, 2008 I think the errors above were when the installer was attempting to update the scenery.cfg. None of the ORBX scenery has been added. Can someone explain what the "FTX Mode" program does. George Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest J van E Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 FTX Mode quickly turns FTX on and off. If you fly outside the FTX area you have to turn off. Don't know the answer to your problem, but I do know you have to post your ordernumber (4 digits) here before you get support. (I just posted this so the support guys won't have to ask it (what they always do, they don't simply ignore posts without an ordernumber!), and to speed up the process. ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks J, I have amended the post to include the order details. But, what is "FTX Mode"? George Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolter van der Spoel Posted March 20, 2008 Share Posted March 20, 2008 did you try to right click the installer and select install as admininstrator ? From the message it seems that something is not correct, normally it shouldn't be a problem to install the ORBX folder in the fsX Root folder Some more of the mates are running Vista so they have more insight to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is not the FSX root folder, the scenery.cfg is in Documents and settings which is a protected folder. I have manually added the scenery but I would like to know the recommended priorities in scenery.cfg. George Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
